Ready for phase two 
Hey All, It was so much Mind exercise learning to create my Own Dapp. I created a simple but working Dapp and was Great fun.
Metamask works just fine and I am able to fund the Contract and also Withdraw all Balance and The User can bet as many Ether until the fact that Bet amount <= instance.Balance(of the Contract).
Thanks for such a Wonderful forum ( I learn a lot from you Guys and your examples too !!)
Thanks for all the help @dan-i and @filip
Cheers

Hey @Su.kal.Crypto
I am so happy to see your progress! Well done 
Now ready for phase two
I wish you a great day,
Dani
hello! I was able to go further with my dapp. At this point is completed and it seem to work.
The only thing I canât get to work is this:
after the bet Iâd like to get on the page the new value of Balance for example without the need to refresh.
could you help me to get what is wrong?
for example in main.js file I define the getBalance() function
function getBalance(){
contractInstance.methods.balance().call().then(function(res){ // in una blockchain vera createPerson è lenta, e getPerson è veloce
$("#balance_output").text(res);
$("#max_bet").text(res/2.5);
})};
and then I call it after the bet function:
function inputData(){
var config = {
value: web3.utils.toWei("1", "ether")}
var amount = $("#amount").val();
contractInstance.methods.setBet(amount, bet).send({value: web3.utils.toWei(amount, "ether")})
.on("transactionHash", function(hash){
console.log(hash);
})
.on("confirmation", function(confirmationNr){
console.log(confirmationNr);
})
.on("receipt", function(receipt){
console.log(receipt);
alert("done");
})
getBalance()
}
but still it doesnât update automatically on the page but only after refresh.
this is the main.js
var web3 = new Web3(Web3.givenProvider);
var contractInstance;
$(document).ready(function() {
window.ethereum.enable().then(function(accounts){
contractInstance = new web3.eth.Contract(abi, "0x6623444594c3555F9652AD1ed273f8317a55b35f", {from: accounts[0]});

thanks a lot!
Hi @enrico
In your code I do not see events handling.
In order to automatically update the balance, you should listen for events so that you can call your function getBalance() as soon as you get the bet result back.
Regards,
Dani
Hi @dan-i
I was just trying to add more functionalities as below: 
Instead of using one Button , i added two Buttons
Head and Tails
Both lead to the same function flipCoin();
But when i click on Head it directs me to Metamask and my Transaction goes through , but when i click on Tails, it doesnât go through which is quite strange 
Below Code
<div class="container">
<div>
<h2>Now time to Bet</h2>
<div class="input-group mb-3">
<input type="text" class="form-control" id="bet_input" placeholder="Enter amount in ether less than Contract Balance"/>
</div>
<button type="button" id="flip_button" class="btn btn-primary">Head</button>
<button type="button" id="flip_button1" class="btn btn-primary">Tails</button>
</div>
</div>
var web3 = new Web3(Web3.givenProvider);

alert("You lost " + bet + " Ether!");
}
else if(receipt.events.betPlaced.returnValues[2] === true){
alert("You won " + bet + " Ether!");
}
})
};
function fetchAndDisplay(){
contractInstance.methods.getBalance().call().then(function(res){
$("#jackpot_output").text("The Contract has : " + web3.utils.fromWei(res[1], "ether") + "Ether");

})
.on("receipt", function(receipt){
console.log(receipt);
})
}
});
function withdrawAll(){
contractInstance.methods.withdrawAll().send();
}
Can you please explain me where I am going wrong???
Also, another question:
When i put the withdrawAll() inside the window.ethereum.enable().then(function(accounts) {
function withdrawAll(){
contractInstance.methods.withdrawAll().send();
}
)
It doesnât work.
And when i put it outside the window.ethereum.enable() {} ,
It Magically worksâŚ
I cannot grasp my Head around this?
Can you explain ??
I want to get into the Phase 2 after I understand all the basics conceptually well enough so my mind doesnât waiver Later.
Thanks and Regards

Hello thanks,
I tried to set the function getBalance() inside the receipt and it works
function inputData(){
var config = {
value: web3.utils.toWei("1", "ether")}
var amount = $("#amount").val();
contractInstance.methods.setBet(amount, bet).send({value: web3.utils.toWei(amount, "ether")}) // cosĂŹ evito di scrivere 1000000000000
.on("transactionHash", function(hash){
console.log(hash);
})
.on("confirmation", function(confirmationNr){
console.log(confirmationNr);
})
.on("receipt", function(receipt){
console.log(receipt);
getBalance();
getPlayerBalance();
getTotGames();
getTotMoneyBetted();
getGamesWon();
getMoneyWon();
})
}
anyway I think is not clear to me how to use my own event.
in the contract I defined the event âbetEventâ which emit the result of the bet after the âsetBetâ function is called.event betEvent(uint bet);
to use this in the main.js file I tried to do the following after the function that start the bet function:
function inputData(){
var config = {
value: web3.utils.toWei("1", "ether")}
var amount = $("#amount").val();
contractInstance.methods.setBet(amount, bet).send({value: web3.utils.toWei(amount, "ether")})
.on("transactionHash", function(hash){
console.log(hash);
})
.on("confirmation", function(confirmationNr){
console.log(confirmationNr);
})
.on("receipt", function(receipt){
console.log(receipt);
alert("done");
})
.on("bet", getBalance)
}
and also
function inputData(){
var config = {
value: web3.utils.toWei("1", "ether")}
var amount = $("#amount").val();
contractInstance.methods.setBet(amount, bet).send({value: web3.utils.toWei(amount, "ether")})
.on("transactionHash", function(hash){
console.log(hash);
})
.on("confirmation", function(confirmationNr){
console.log(confirmationNr);
})
.on("receipt", function(receipt){
console.log(receipt);
alert("done");
})
.contractInstance.events.betEvent().on("bet", getBalance);
}
neither are working.
can you please tell me how to use this correctly?
thanks
I saw that you have added two buttons (head and tail), but whatâs the difference between them?
They both call the same function. How does the function know if the user choice is head or tail?
You have to code the different behaviours (functions accept parameters)
Also the functions need to be outside the windows.eth.enable, as thatâs a function used to connect metamask.
Kind regards,
Dani
I am currently working on setting up an event listener for the result of the random function if the result was what the user chose else if it wasnât correct.
Iâm trying to alert() the response of the listener and am getting an error of main.js:50 Uncaught (in promise) ReferenceError: outcome is not defined in my javascript file -
await alert(contractInstance.events.Outcome(outcome)); //(outcome) is where the error is showing up at
Outcome is the name of the listener and outcome is the name of the events string variable. I feel like I have the line correct for the most part but am thinking I am accessing the event variable incorrectly.
I also initially had it just as this -
await alert(contractInstance.events.Outcome);
I was getting an alert at that point but it was just showing this:
function () { [native code] }
And the alert seemed to be showing up before the âcoin flipâ actually happened.
Here is my main.js code:
var web3 = new Web3(Web3.givenProvider);
var contractInstance;
$(document).ready(function() {
window.ethereum.enable().then(function(accounts){
contractInstance = new web3.eth.Contract(abi, "0x315f7861Fe614133c804bD1D2e901fA40Fd49B50", {from: accounts[0]});
console.log(contractInstance);
});
$("#add_bet_button").click(inputData);
$("#get_current_bet_btn").click(fetchAndDisplay);
$("#flip_coin_btn").click(pickChoiceAndFlipCoin);
});
function inputData() {
let bet = $("#bet_input").val().toString()
let config = {
value: web3.utils.toWei(bet, "ether")
}
contractInstance.methods.setBet(bet).send(config)
.on("transactionHash", function(hash){
console.log(hash);
})
.on("confirmation", function(confirmationNr){
console.log(confirmationNr);
})
.on("receipt", function(receipt){
console.log(receipt);
})
};
function fetchAndDisplay() {
contractInstance.methods.getBetAmount().call().then(function(res){
$("#current_bet_output").text(res);
});
};
async function pickChoiceAndFlipCoin() {
let selectedValue = $('input[name=answer]:checked').val();
await contractInstance.methods.random(selectedValue).send();
await alert(contractInstance.events.Outcome(outcome));
};
Here is my contracts code as well:
pragma solidity 0.7.6;
contract CoinFlip {
mapping (address => uint) balance;
uint256 betAmount;
uint256 minimumBet;
string outcome;
event Outcome(string outcome);
constructor() {
minimumBet = 1;
}
function addBalance() public payable returns(uint){
balance[msg.sender] += msg.value;
return balance[msg.sender];
}
function getBalance() public view returns(uint){
return balance[msg.sender];
}
function setBet(uint256 amount) public payable returns(uint256, uint256){
require(minimumBet <= amount, "Minimum bet should be at least 1 ether");
balance[msg.sender] -= amount;
betAmount = amount;
return(balance[msg.sender], betAmount);
}
function getBetAmount() public view returns(uint256){
return betAmount;
}
function random(uint256 choice) public payable returns(string memory){
require(choice == 0 || choice == 1);
uint256 result = block.timestamp % 2;
if(result == choice){
balance[msg.sender] += betAmount * 2;
betAmount = 0;
emit Outcome("congrats, you win!");
}
else{
betAmount = 0;
emit Outcome("sorry you lost, try again.");
}
}
}
I feel like Iâve somewhat hit a snag now. Thank you for the help!
Hi @Paul_Mun
async function pickChoiceAndFlipCoin() {
let selectedValue = $('input[name=answer]:checked').val();
await contractInstance.methods.random(selectedValue).send();
await alert(contractInstance.events.Outcome(outcome));
};
This outcome is not declared in your function indeed therefore your code does not know what to alert.
You first have to declare a variable, bind a value then alert it.
function test () {
console.log(outcome);
}
Would product outcome is not definied.
let outcome = 5;
console.log(outcome);
Will display the number 5 in your console.
You always have to declare a variable before using it.

Dani
Struggling to figure out how to get the contract to pay out to the better after a win. This should be functional in the phase of the project, correct? If so, can you give me a hint as to how to make the payout happen?
Thank you!
I was able to figure it out. msg.transfer did the trick for me on the contract side. However, on the js side, I had to use .send({value: 0, from: contractInstance.address}). Is this the best way to handle that? Regardless, attached are the screenshots that show the dapp in action.
Home Screen/Original State
Create Bet (1 ETH)
Settle Bet/Generates pseudo random number/determines win or loss
Transaction + alert if you won.
Alert if you lost.
Thanks Dani
I understood and resolved the issue.
Meanwhile, I am stuck at another point : How to listen to ? and how to console.log the events ?
Please have a look at the below code in my Github Repository and kindly let me know where I am going wrong
https://github.com/Suveett/coinFlip-Dapp.git
Anyways, I am also just enclosing below the main.js function where I am trying to get an alert created for the event, but itâs not showing as the alert after execution of function. And the surprising part also is that there no errors being thrown in the console while executing this function
function fetchAndDisplay(){
contractInstance.methods.getBalance().call().then(function(res){
$("#jackpot_output").text("The Contract has : " + web3.utils.fromWei(res[1], "ether") + "Ether");
})
};
function fundContract(){
var fund = $("#fund_contract").val();
var config = {
value : web3.utils.toWei(fund, "ether")
}
contractInstance.methods.fundContract().send(config)
.on("transactionHash", function(hash){
console.log(hash);
})
.on("confirmation", function(confirmationNr){
console.log(confirmationNr);
})
.on("receipt", function(receipt){
console.log(receipt);
receipt.events.contractFunded(function(error, result){
alert(`The Contract has now been funded by + ${result.returnValues.amount(web3.utils.fromWei(amount, "ether"))} + Ether`);
})
})
};
Can you guide me where am I going wrong ?

Ahh ok I see what you mean!! What is the difference between accessing a global variable through a getter function vs just setting the variable to public then accessing it thorough the getter function that is automatically created for it? Is one way more superior or more safer to use than the other?
Hey everyone, @dan-i @filip @thecil
I hope all is well with you! I have recently gotten stuck on the project on the Coin Flipp Dapp Project.
I have started to receive an error when trying to interact with my dapp through the localhost server and Ganache. I am getting some error that seems to be pertaining to Ganache. Here is the following error message that I am receiving. Everything was working fine until this point.
MetaMask - RPC Error: Error: [ethjs-query] while formatting outputs from RPC '{"value":{"code":-32603,"data":{"message":"VM Exception while processing transaction: revert","code":-32000,"data":{"0x561ecfe8301c8c7c2724531363728afeaf555613467b10462f470cf869d16d36":{"error":"revert","program_counter":273,"return":"0x"},"stack":"RuntimeError: VM Exception while processing transaction: revert\n at Function.RuntimeError.fromResults (/tmp/.mount_ganachwb0RIt/resources/static/node/node_modules/ganache-core/lib/utils/runtimeerror.js:94:13)\n at BlockchainDouble.processBlock (/tmp/.mount_ganachwb0RIt/resources/static/node/node_modules/ganache-core/lib/blockchain_double.js:627:24)\n at runMicrotasks (<anonymous>)\n at processTicksAndRejections (internal/process/task_queues.js:93:5)","name":"RuntimeError"}}}}' {code: -32603, message: "Error: [ethjs-query] while formatting outputs fromâŚ/task_queues.js:93:5)","name":"RuntimeError"}}}}'"}
Iâve spend 2 days trying to figure this out and look this up. With my current knowledge I have been unable to figure it out. Would anyone happen to know what would be causing me to get this error?
Things Iâve already tried:
- Resetting my MM
- Reinstalling MM
- Resetting my computer
- Clearing Cache
- Switching from port number 7545 to 8545
- Deleting CoinFlip.json file and re-migrating
- Going over my code
I think there may have been another student with a similar issue as well as I noticed the same question as mine posted on Ethereum Stack Exchange from 6 days ago for a coin flip dapp. Here is my github as well: https://github.com/Paul-Munley/CoinFlipDapp
Thank you for the help!
I had a similar issues.
- For the Revert error : Surely there is a RevertError in the code (@dan-i) can check code and revert.
- Also, I had to open up a new workplace in Ganache and Miraculously everything worked Ok after that (do not forget to copy the new contract address in main.js)
Thanks and Cheers and Happy Coding

Hey @Su.kal.Crypto
-
Ya I was thinking it had to be something in my code but and having a difficult time diagnosing it. I know for sure the contract code should be ok.

Unfortunately I already tried that and didnât seem to have much luck. Itâs good to know that I havenât been the only one with this issue though.
Thank you for the response, I really appreciate it! 
Iâve now narrowed this down to I think this code as being the issue but canât figure out what is wrong with this. It seems to be throwing the error in regards to the config being passed into the send. Any ideas?
function inputBetData() {
let bet = $("#bet_input").val();
let config = {
value: web3.utils.toWei(bet, "ether")
}
console.log(config);
contractInstance.methods.setBet(bet).send(config)
.on("transactionHash", function(hash){
console.log(hash);
})
.on("confirmation", function(confirmationNr){
console.log(confirmationNr);
})
.on("receipt", function(receipt){
console.log(receipt);
})
};
This code above will take the input for the bet amount and subtract it from the contract balance that was added to the page. It is meant to take in an ether amount from the user and send it to the contract.
Hi @Haysoose
I had to use .send({value: 0, from: contractInstance.address}). Is this the best way to handle that?
The payout should not be handled in the js file, it should be done from your contract directly.
Keep in mind that your contract must be 100% independent from the front end.
If you want to push money to the user in case he wins (not safe), you can use msg.sender.transfer().
if (userGuess == now %2) msg.sender.transfer etcâŚ
I suggest you to keep track of the user balance and code a withdraw function instead.
Regards,
Dani
